Rotokare Road / Mountain Road Intersection Upgrade

Rotokare Road, Eltham

South Taranaki District Council

2017

In March this year we were awarded the SH3 / Rotokare Road intersection upgrade. We established on site on May 1st 2017 undertaking vegetation stripping and then continuing on with the bulk earthworks, with four excavators and four bulk tractor/trailer units working in 3 different areas cutting from one area then filling and compacting it in another. We then progressed to cutting the road for subgrade, installing culverts and metaling up the sub base all while traffic still flowing and un interrupted. Sub grade was cut and preparation for seal was undertaken while this was happening we had a MSE wall being constructed in the south bound lane above an existing swamp.
